More Horsepower! The stock 1996 to 2004 4.6L GT Mustangs came with a respectable 260 Horsepower and 302 lb/ft of Torque from the factory, but after installing a Hellion Single Turbo Kit you will be planting a ground pounding 350 to 850 Horsepower to the pavement (depending on custom tuning and fuel upgrades).

Your pony came from the factory with right around 230rwhp. Unfortunately the 1999-2004 stock mustang interals will max out right around 450rwhp. To daily drive, 400rwhp is the max. After that you will be killing her quick. You will need upgraded internals, along with frame upgrades such as torque box plates, and ofcourse subframe connectors. This will ensure your 500hp monster modular motor doesnt twist your frame.As as side note, the stock 1999-2004 mustang block itself is good for 1000rwhp. Once your longblock is upgraded for boost, 500rwhp will be easily obtainable.

If you have forged internals, then you need 42lb-60lb injectors, 255lph fuel pump, better fuel rails, Boost-a-Pump, tubular k-member for header clearance. Optional: you can up grade your cams to a stage 1 and be just fine.

What accessories are needed on the top end? I have a stock block w/ stock crank and forged rotating assembly (99' gt) shooting for 500-550hp (limited by cast crank obviously). Can I use my stock PI heads,cams,intake etc. with this kit?

If you have fully forged internals (aside from the crank) then the motor will handle up to 600rwhp comfortably. You can use your stock heads up to about 450-500. If you upgrade your heads with a set of stainless steel valves and brass valve guides along with stage 3-5 springs, you will be set up for success. You can use your stock cams and have no trouble what so ever. If you want to upgrade them that would be great to. But you can only go up to about a stage 2 turbo cam with notching your pistons. Stage 1 turbo cams would be a great upgrade without any problems. The stock intake will be alright but in my own opinion I would upgrade it to a typhoon intake or the edelbrock victor jr you will need to upgrade your fuel rails. BBK high flow fuel rails. When and if you get this kit, if you want to get all the power you can you need to upgrade to the SVT ford focus 255lph fuel pump and that will get you to where you want to be on HP. Of course you are going to need a Boost-a-pump. You will also need 42lb-60lb injectors. Any other questions just post them.

A good set of cams and a nice spring upgrade should do the trick. Keep in mind that with any kind of forced induction that your flow will only be as good as your heads, cam, springs and intake manifolds allow it too. A set of ported heads with a nice set of cams and springs will help you a lot.

It's always a good idea to upgrade your bottom end. Too many people go buck-wild adding top-end power and forget about the block/rotating assembly.
I would look into a block capable of handling more HP than you plan on throwing at the car. Your local machine shop should be able to let you know what they recommend you do to "bullet-proof" it if you want to add the power without sacrificing reliability!
Get a higher HP rated clutch or you'll see problems there too...
I would go to your local Machine Shop and ask what they would recommend.
I think Nitrous has a higher probability of "blowing the motor" than a single Turbo kit...make sure to use an intercooler and get a gauge kit to monitor your pony!
Lastly, if you're pushing more air IN via forced induction, make sure you have the equipment to let air OUT. I'm referencing headers, high flow cats and exhaust. You said you have some basic bolt-ons so you may have that covered...
Read the instructions thoroughly and ensure you have the turbo manufacturer's recommended spark plugs and I would also get a set of 60,000v coils too.
Hope that helps!

First thing you need to do if you are going to put anything of the forced induction type on (unless its a Kenne Belle SC) is fully forged internals. If you are going to stay under 600rwhp then you don't have to get a forged crank, but anything above that you will need a forged crank. Stock internals will hold only about 450rwhp.
